Depends which media idiot, ex-player or footy follower you talk to. WE all know tanking is deliberately loosing games.

In any case this doesn't involve Melbourne so in the eys of the media it will be a non-issue, smart list development, prudent and great forward planning.

EXACTLY the same as most other non-finals clubs do at this time of the season. Even earlier for some teams, relative to how low they are on the ladder.

If the rules reward lower ladder positions in terms of draft, then teams with no finals chance will inevidively not worry about where they finish. In fact, as Hardwick has pointed out, it's a great chance to try out new players in new positions. Experimentation with nothing much to lose.

Sounds familiar?

I'm surprised (kind of) that no one has since discussed their changes for this week:

In: Astbury, Batchelor and Dea

Out: King (Foot), Griffiths (Concussion) and Ellis

Not exactly wholesale and they're probably still favourites.

If they are tanking, they're not doing a very good job of it.

5 goals up on the Dons early in Q3.

an 'honourable' 11th it seems..

Dons are going to finish 12th. Pretty funny if you ask me..

Lloyd is just unbearable to listen to. So good that he's bleeding.
